On the Needles!

We have a left front in progress!
The pattern is easy to build and relaxing to knit-always a bonus!  
But I will tell you I ripped this out and am doing it again in the next size.
I doubted myself after the swatch and dropped a size to make up for the gauge
being off but now it is drawing in too much;
better to find out now than when the sweater is done!!!
                   I finished the pink blocks and will start cutting out the orange ones tomorrow!      
And this mess is turning into something very neat, if you can believe it!
                                     (I try to sneak in a block, 5 mins flat when I can!)                                             
And I am accumulating a pile of triangles!
This will be a Quilt of Valor donation if I can get enough blocks to 
make a twin sized quilt.

  3. Your left front panel is wonderful! I love it. Will you share that pattern part? I bet I could do it on the back of my vest. I'd have to add stitches, but it may be perfect. Looks like some ribbing and a twisted rib middle?

  4. The sweater is already beautiful! I recognize some of that patriotic fabric — I didn’t realize that organization (QOV) has morphed a bit and is thriving. Nice!
